Grace's New Anime Characters

Grace is still deeply entrenched in the whole manga/anime world. She is currently using her writing time each day to write a story and feverishly illustrating characters both for the book and just for fun.

These look great! My daughter was enjoying anime quite a bit last year and I still find doodles around. I'll show her Grace's drawings.

I showed these to my daughter, who loves anime and manga. Her response: "Those are crazy good!" She commented that the figures are all well-proportioned and nicely shaded. She also said that your daughter might enjoy working with a program like Gimp (free!) to either scan in drawings and then color them or make the drawings from scratch. She then started talking about layers and all kinds of other stuff that was way over my head!! (BTW, Gimp is complicated at first, but there are good tutorials on YouTube.)

I hope she continues to enjoy her drawing - it's clear that she's got some talent!

Catherine,
Grace does use Gimp periodically as well as paint. Loves to draw her characters on the computer. She is wishing for a sketch pad for the computer at birthday time.
Blessings,
Diane
